Daily Intelligence: Starting Out, I Won a Thirty Million Lottery Grand Prize

chapter 108 - High-Level Languages


The passing flight attendant gave an almost contemptuous look at Elder Wang, then said in a foreign language, "Oh, sir, I don't understand what you are saying (this is in a foreign language...)".Hearing this, Elder Wang looked a bit puzzled. He had heard them conversing in Xia language when they boarded the plane, so why couldn't ~Nоvеl𝕚ght~ she understand him now?One should know, his standard Xia language was almost perfect, commonly known as a broadcasting voice; she couldn't possibly not understand him!Could it be that she didn't hear clearly?"Hello, I need a glass of plain hot water, and I would like a blanket, please," Elder Wang said again, very politely.Hearing Elder Wang speak again, the flight attendant still had a scornful look, glanced around, and said, "Oh, sir, what are you saying? Why can't I understand? Do you speak a more advanced language? (This is in a foreign language)".Upon hearing the flight attendant's words, Elder Wang's expression immediately changed!What does she mean by 'do you speak a more advanced language'? As a service provider, should she demand a specific language from those being served?It wasn't that she couldn't understand Xia language, so why such differential treatment?Could it be that if one spoke a foreign language, she would be deferential, but if one spoke Xia language, she could be indifferent?The flight attendant's behavior deeply offended Elder Wang. Although he was old, as a top practitioner in the antiques industry, he had traveled abroad numerous times and could converse with foreigners in very fluent foreign language, with impeccable pronunciation!But this was Xia's territory. Even if this airline was not Xia's, their customers were Xia people. You earn money on Xia's territory, and in the end, you expect Xia people to speak a foreign language?Language is merely a tool for communication, yet they regarded it as something to distinguish social classes. Elder Wang was very displeased about this!Although he could speak a foreign language, he was determined not to speak it today. He would speak in Xia language until she understood!"You say you don't understand what I'm saying, but I understand what you're saying.""Your current behavior has violated a major taboo in your industry. I will not communicate with you in a foreign language today. If you don't understand my words, I will repeat them ten thousand times!" Elder Wang's face brewed with a hint of anger, and his aura, once released, was very authoritative!Hearing this, Zhou Rou, who was sitting nearby, as well as Su Yun and Bai Qian behind him, realized something was amiss.This flight attendant was clearly being discriminatory, earning their money yet discriminating against their language!Su Yun reacted very quickly, almost immediately pulling out his phone and starting to record as soon as Elder Wang finished speaking. "Hmph! What do you mean by this? Are you discriminating?" Zhou Rou's tone was much more aggressive than Elder Wang's!Her voice was loud, instantly attracting the attention of many people. A large portion of these people were from Jiangcheng, and some were from Xiangjiang. Many spoke foreign languages, so they naturally knew what had just happened.Seeing the situation gradually escalating, the flight attendant also felt something was wrong, but the haughty expression on her face did not disappear. Instead, she continued, "Oh, sir, I didn't mean to. I really don't understand what you're saying. I usually speak a more advanced language..."As soon as these words were uttered, they immediately aroused the displeasure of many who understood. For a moment, many people looked at the troublesome flight attendant with angry eyes!"What do you mean by that? Are you saying our language is inferior?""Heh heh, is this the attitude of this airline's attendants? What kind of thing!""You earn our money here, yet you demand that we speak another language to serve us? You're so high and mighty!"Su Yun, while recording, curled his lips into a smile and then said, "Everyone, don't be angry. This person might have some issues with her language center. Since she doesn't understand what we're saying, we can give her a good greeting..."As soon as Su Yun finished speaking, someone immediately understood!"You don't understand, do you? Alright, since you don't understand, then I'll have to praise you well..." someone immediately said.""""Then a burly man unleashed a barrage of very 'beautiful' language upon the flight attendant!At first, the flight attendant managed to endure it, as she couldn't let others see that she actually understood. But as the man's language became increasingly 'beautiful', she could no longer hold back!"Enough! Are you never going to stop? Is this your quality?" The flight attendant blurted out in Xia language..."Oh, oh, oh, isn't this the grand flight attendant who only speaks a more advanced language? Why is she now speaking our 'inferior' language?""Oh my, I thought this person had some brain problems. Doesn't she know how to speak? What's with the pretense...""We've barely started! You can't take it already? Shouldn't you apologize for being so rude to this old gentleman just now!"Some people were filled with righteous indignation, all pointing their fingers at the flight attendant!The flight attendant saw this scene and truly had not expected it!These people, who spoke an 'inferior' language, dared to speak to her like this!Suddenly, two tears of grievance fell!Didn't she just speak a little bit of a more advanced language? They spoke an inferior language, how could they deserve her service? This old man clearly knew how to speak a more advanced language; if he had spoken a more advanced language just now, wouldn't she have served him?The flight attendant felt deeply wronged, feeling that no one understood her. This was a perfectly reasonable matter, yet these impolite people were making such a fuss!"What's going on?" Seeing the commotion in the cabin, an older woman slowly approached. She was the chief flight attendant for this journey."It's like this..." The flight attendant quickly recounted the entire incident from beginning to end.The chief nodded, indicating understanding. She had seen such things too many times. These people who couldn't speak a more advanced language were just too sensitive. It was one thing not to speak a more advanced language, but their inability to accept their own mediocrity was hard to comment on... She had encountered similar situations before, and in the end, satisfying their demands usually resolved it. These people had no power, so they were easy to deal with."Sir, I am very sorry, we are at fault in this matter. Could I hear your request again?" The chief flight attendant said with a forced smile."A cup of warm plain water and a blanket," Elder Wang said clearly and distinctly."Oh, we have blankets here, but as for warm plain water... *cough cough*... How about a cup of coffee or something a bit more advanced? As for warm plain water... hehe..."Although the chief flight attendant wanted to settle the matter, she also couldn't let these lower-class people dictate terms, so she wouldn't easily let them get their way...
